Fredericton Outreach: ACORN’s NB Power Petition!
Landlords are cashing in on green retrofit funding, low- and moderate-income tenants are once again left behind—facing sky-high rents, no AC, broken windows, and unaffordable energy bills.
On May 28th, ACORN members will take action nationwide to demand real climate justice for tenants.
What we’re calling for:
- Full Rent Control in every province
- A national ban on fixed-term leases
- Tenant protections in all retrofit funding: affordability, cooling, and anti-eviction guarantees
- Transparent agreements between funders, landlords, and tenants
- National energy poverty programs like OESP in every province
- City-wide max-heat bylaws to protect tenant health
We’ll be taking the opportunity to launch our new report:
"Broken Homes on a Burning Planet: How Tenants Are Paying Twice"
The findings are clear—tenants are suffering while the government hands out funding with no strings attached. Let’s fight for tenant rights, climate safety, and affordable homes.
Join us in cities across Canada on May 28th. Bring your voice. Bring your neighbours. Bring the heat!!
